Finished Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep a bit back. Now on The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Yes, I am way behind. What I find fascinating is how many of you have read or are reading Game of Thrones. Guess that will have to be next.

I just finished The Sisters Brothers by Patrick DeWitt – it was an short, fun read – perfect for summer. I am now reading The Tiger’s Wife… I am half way through and I am not really enjoying it that much. Looking forward to moving on to something else… Maybe Wolff Hall as others have mentioned (thanks!).

Last book series I read was Lindsey Davis’s, “Didius Falco” series. Right now I’m reading, “The Executor’s Handbook”, a guide for those appointed an executor of someone’s estate. ugh. Drinking a variety of my favorites, “Lady Grey”, “Yorkshire Tea”, and new ones “Diamond Jubliee” and “Paris”.

I read The Plague and loved it. Also read Myth of Sisyphus by Camus for a class but didn’t enjoy it much. I think sometimes that’s the nature of reading a book for a class though. I usually enjoy books more when I get to read them on my own terms.

Luckily reading books for classes didn’t bother me, but it did sometimes force me to read ones I wouldn’t have even started otherwise. Usually that was for the best, but sometimes I just couldn’t get into the book.

I’m using Mosby’s Medical Dictionary on my kobo to look up stuff for my homework. It’s a better than Merriam Webster which looks like someone just scanned it in instead of properly formatting it. The Mosby’s is easy to read and really easy to find what I’m looking for! :D

Coworker loaned me The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein. A dog narrator with a human who races NASCAR. Not something I would ever pick up on my own, but it hooked me after the first couple chapters.
